Another entry in the technology series (there are two now, so I'm allowed to call it a series). It took more time than I wanted and painting the words was traumatic. I went about it the same way I did the numbers on the watch, ie painted all around where the word would eventually be, then at the end painted the words. The most obscure detail: num-lock in "on". You'll see it now. Joe reviewed it midway and remarked that I was using a lot of purple. That, my friends, is the "glow" from the monitor.
I used quite a bit of Payne's Gray, which happens to be a Hobby Lobby tube of paint. While the price is right, the quality once again is perplexing. I needed to squeeze out a bit more to finish, and nothing was moving, so I squeezed a bit harder, and whammo! A giant clot of paint was expelled. It looked like a slug. Kind of gross. And now I will have to Payne's-Gray-background-paint a bunch of canvases (or forfeit the slug).
